Michael Bay Parades Megan Fox For The Boys
Megan Fox in 'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen'
In an exclusive interview with Collider Megan Fox has spilled the beans on what director Michael Bay made her do when trying on her costumes for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. I’m guessing since Michael Bay is unphased by accusations of racism in the movie, he probably won’t batter an eyelid if sexism is added to the mix.
Watch the interview now:
“I went to Bay Films and Michael Bay has an upstairs room which is where all the business happens and he was up there with Ramone, two other actors that were possibly going to be in the film, Shiah was up there, three of the writers were up there. So it’s a room just full of men, a lot of men and they’re up there talking and discussing the movie or whatever and simultaneously he wanted me to have my wardrobe fitting. So I had to come up and down the stairs everytime to show him a new outfit, its like forty stairs. I’d go down to this little room in the basement and put on an outfit and one of the outfits, let’s say, they’re basically like one z’s or like baby jumpers with motorcycle boots on. And I would go up there and parade around in front of all them, he’s Michael…god-forbid he’d get up out of his chair and come into the hallway and look at me…I have to come into the room and do a little fashion show, a little three point turn, and then he would say he liked it or hated it for whatever reason and then we’d repeat the process. We did this for like five hours.”
Of course, with all the Michael Bay hating going on, perhaps a little more balanced perspective is appropriate. It is here I’m reminded of the story where Michael Bay paid Megan Fox $600 to get wet when she was 15 years old for a club scene in Bad Boys II.
From Entertainment Weekly:
What was it like the first time you worked with him?
I was actually an extra on “Bad Boys II” (in 2003). There’s a club scene, and I was one of the club kids. I was in a stars-and-stripes bikini and a cowboy hat, dancing under a waterfall.Wait, what?
Yeah, I was still in ninth grade. I liked it at the time, because I was getting out of school. So I was like, F—- yeah, I don’t care! And I got paid extra because if you allow them to put water on you, you get paid extra. I got probably $600.How did you feel about being sexualized like that when you were 15?
I thought it was awesome. I was going to a Christian high school and I wasn’t a feminist yet. I hadn’t sat back and analyzed society yet. I was 15! I just did what I was told to do.What did your parents think?
My mom was with me! I was always übersexual, so she wasn’t shocked. I was always wearing the smallest clothes I could find. I would go to the mall like that — in a short, short skirt and a giant wedge heel. That’s what you do when you’re a teenage girl in a small town.
Finally, you may also want to check out another part of her interview with Collider in which Fox admits she’d like to follow in the footsteps of Olivia Munn and walk around as a slave Princess Leia. View that here.
